נדי , the young of the goat. Among the Hebrews the kid was reckoned a great delicacy; and appears to have been served for food in preference to the lamb. (See Goat.) It continues to be a choice dish in the neighbouring countries. “After drinking,” says Salt, “cafe a la Sultane, as it is termed by French writers, hookahs were offered to us; and soon afterward, to my great surprise, dinner was announced. We accordingly retired with the dola of Aden to another apartment, where a kid, broiled and cut into small pieces, with a quantity of pillaued rice, was served up to us, agreeably to the fashion of the country. No people in the world is more straitened than the Abyssinians with respect to the necessaries of life: a little juwarry bread, a small quantity of fish, an adequate supply of goat's and camel's milk, and a kid on very particular occasions, constitute the whole of their subsistence. As soon as we arrived at the village of Howakil, a very neat hut was prepared for me; and as the evening was far advanced, I consented to stay for the night. Nothing could exceed the kindness of these good people; a kid was killed, and a quantity of fresh milk was brought and presented in straw baskets made of the leaves of the doom tree, seared over with wax, a manufacture in which the natives of these islands particularly excel.” The village of Engedi, situate in the neighbourhood of Jericho, derives its name from the Hebrew word עין , a fountain,, and נדי , a kid. It is suggested by the situation among lofty rocks, which, overhanging the valleys, are very precipitous. A fountain of pure water rises near the summit, which the inhabitants called Engedi, “the fountain of the goat,” because it is hardly accessible to any other creature.

Deu_14:21 (b) This is a type of the life of a young person. The milk which should have sustained the little kid was used instead to boil it. The Lord does not want us to use for destructive purposes that which He has given us for constructive use. The practice of stewing the kid in the mother's milk was observed by oriental farmers as a means of blessing on their crops. They would make the stew, mix water with it to give volume, and then sprinkle this over the fields in order to make them fertile and more productive. The Lord warns people not to resort to these heathen expedients but rather to look to Him and depend upon Him for blessing on their fields and crops. (See also Exo_23:19 and Exo_34:26). (See also under MILK).

1Sa_10:3 (c) This is probably a type of the Lord JESUS, the young man, offered as a sacrifice. As each of these three men had an entire kid for himself, so each believer may have all of the Lord JESUS for himself. CHRIST is not divided. All of His ministry, all of His work, all of His grace is for each individual believer.

Luk_15:29 (c) This is a type of the Lord JESUS unrecognized, unused, and unappreciated by those who should have known Him best.

Kid
(properly גְּדַי, gedi', so called from cropping the herbage; more fully, גְּדַי עַזּים, "kid of the goats;" fem. גְּדַיּה, gediyah', a she-kid, Cant. i, 8; also בֶּןאּעֵז, son of a goat, 2Ch_35:7, orig.; sometimes for עֵז, a goat, itself, Num_15:11; 1Ki_20:27; likewise שָׂעַיר, si'r, hairy, i.e. a goat, Genesis 35:31; Lev_4:23; Lev_9:3; Lev_16:5; Lev_23:19, etc.; fern. שְׂעַירָה, seirah, Lev_4:28; Lev_5:6; Greek ἔριφιος, Luk_15:29; "goat," Mat_25:32, Mat_25:33 ἐριφίον, diminutive), the young of the goat, reckoned a great delicacy among the ancients; and it appears to have been served for food in preference to the lamb (Gen_27:9; Gen_38:17; Jdg_6:19; Jdg_14:6; 1Sa_16:20). It still continues to be a choice dish among the Arabs. By the Mosaic law, the Hebrews were forbidden to dress a kid in the milk of its dam; and this remarkable prohibition is repeated three several times (Exo_23:19; Exo_34:26; Deu_14:21). This law has been variously understood. However, it is generally supposed that it was intended to guard the Hebrews against some idolatrous or superstitious practice of the neighboring heathen nations. The practice is quite common with modern Orientals (Thomson, Land and Book, i, 135). Kids were also among the sacrificial offerings (Exo_12:3, margin; Lev_4:23-26; Num_7:16-87). SEE GOAT.
